That "failure" is spelt wrong when you fail a jail break but don't go pen

Falure.
You escaped, but SmithSolver did not.

Actually I never noticed it.

Its funny I've been playing this game for over two years and never once noticed it.

Report Post Tip

It's deliberate, from a spelling mistake made ages ago. Kind of an inside joke.

Report Post Tip

"Falure" is one of the quirks (an intentional typo) carried over from the original .org game. For those of us who have played the game since the original incarnation, it's something we look upon with fond memories... and which has been pointed out, but retained, many times.

I think it is probably time it was changed personally.

Whilst I can understand why it is retained, this has long since ceased to be a replica of original mafia.org. I would guess more people don't know what it refers to now than do, making it just look amateurish.

But it's in UrbanDictionary.com... That must mean it's correct and proper. Also considering it was added to UrbanDictionary.com on my birthday gives it extra weight.

Report Post Tip

I have never received that message. I can tell you that everything on the Success! screen is spelled accurately.

Report Post Tip

Hmm, well I never noticed that.

Report Post Tip

Still makes me smile to this day.. perhaps thats just trapped wind.

Report Post Tip

I couldn't tell you as i have not had it yet.

Report Post Tip

And since it was added into Urban Dictionary by me!

Report Post Tip

Well, whilst we're pointing things out.... Wack is spelled wrong as well \o/

Report Post Tip

why not just change it?

Report Post Tip

never seen it

Report Post Tip

OK, if you never saw it, then pay attention next time and you'll see it. Maybe that way you could join the conversation.

My first admin question ever was to bother Izzy in #DL and to ask him who was the content editor of the site.  Everyone lol'd at me.  I now embrace Falure as a part of my life.

You know it's bad when you begin to spell it that way when you write.

Report Post Tip

The il kind of blend in, I mean just look at it.

That could be why so many people haven't noticed.

Report Post Tip

dont read those messages. didnt notice it said failure.
